Atlas of Unsettling Ecologies
2023 : : ongoing
In grappling with the urgencies that arise in this moment of planetary transformation, this atlas maps the spontaneous economies and ecologies of 'pure water', revealing the underlying power structures, material culture, and impossible dilemmas that are unsettling Lagos-ian ecologies.
Attempting to slow down in urgent times, we arrive at waste landscapes through a grammar of thinking otherwise and noticing plastics as landscape agents. How might we devise a new way of looking and belonging in the wake of the destruction we have propagated, and honour the vulnerable ecologies that live among our ruins?
